I

words

standing

as

I
cross

sing
“Aula

and,
grasping
the
hand
of
Britain
on

of
Prance
on

solemnly
and
reverently
say
of
these

Those
whom
God
has
joined
together
to
battle
for
liberty,
and
the
enduring
peace
of
th
e
world,
let
no
man
and
no

put
asunder.

The

Com

,
were
the
guests
of
the
city
last
night
at
a
dinner
given
b
y
the
Mayor's
Commit­
tee
at
the
W
aldorf-Astoria
Hotel.
New
York
has
played
host
to
distinguished
visitors
on
m
any
great
occasions,
but
probably
never
before
with
the
unre-
I
strained
enthusiasm
th
a
t
w
as
witnessed
<
last
night,
A
week
of
entertaining
seems
J
to
have
fanned
rather
than
sated
the
,
city's
desire
to
extend
a
welcome
to
its
j
guests,
and
the
c
h
eers
that
greeted
J
off
re,
j
Viviani,
and
Balfour
when
they
entered
the
room
were
repeated
whenever
an
ex­
cuse
was
offered.
Rarely
has
a
m
o
re
distinguished
gath
­
ering
of
New
Yorkers
m
et
to
pay
homage
to
any
one.
More
th
a
n
1,000
leaders
of
the
city’s
public
life,
business,
art,
finance,
science,
and
education
w
ere
grouped
about
the
speakers’
table.
They
included
two
ex-Presidents
of
the
U
n
ited
States,
two
form
e
r
Presidential
candidates,
Charles
E.
H
u
g
h

and
Alton
B.
Parker,
the
Governor
of
New

the
junior
United
States
Senator,
and
Mayor
i
M
iuhei,
who
presided
over
the
cere
monies.
In
the
course
of
his
speech
Mr.
Bal-
i
four
said
th
a
t
he
had
not
come
here
to

'

i
b
u
t
that
the

would
be
glad
|
to
describe
the
m
istakps
of
the
Allies
I!
the
people
here
wished
to
profit
by
them.
H
e
spoke
of
w
h
a
t
he
called
the
\imm
i­
nent
and
overm
astering
peril”
which
the
world
laced,
saying,
in
part:
I
W
hat
is
th
a
t
peril'.’
W
h
a
t
is
th
a
t
peril?
W
ho

ua
here
together'.’
W
h
a
t
|
Is
it
we
are
aftaid
of?
1
won’t
say
afraid.
W
h
a
t
is
it
we
feel
t
h
a
t
we
have
got
to
stop?
I
l
will
tell
you
my
view
of
it.
It
is
th
e
calculated
a
n
d
rem
o
rseless
use
of
every
civilized
weapon
to
carry
out
the
ends
of
pure
barbarism
.
To
people
of
English
speech
i
t
seems
impossible,
in­
credible,
th
a
t
a
nation
should
clearly
set
itself
to
work
and
coordinate
every
m
eans
of
science,
every
m
eans
th
a
t
knowledge,
th
a
t
industry,
can
provide,
not
for
the
bettering
of
its
ow
n
people,
bu
t
for
the
demolition
of
other
people.
We
have
been
tau
g
h
t,
not
by
Germany,
b
u
t
by
those
who
rule
G
erm
any—by
the
m
ilitary
caste
which
controls
Germany—
w
e
have
been
\taught
a
different
lesson,
a
n
d
we
now
know
not
m
erely
th
a
t
every
scientific
weapon
will
be
put
in
force
to
m
a
k
e
war
more
horrible
than
it
was
in
barbarous
times,
b
u
t
t
h
a
t
even
the
rights
of
clviliztaion,
of
trade,
of
commerce,
even
th
e
intercommunication
between
different
peoples,
will
be
used
fo
r
the
same
sin­
ister
object.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
th
a
t
is
the
danger
we
have
to
meet,
and
if
at
this
m
o
m
ent
the
world
is
bathed
in
blood
an
d
tears
from
the
highlands
of
dis­
ta
n
t
A
rm
enia
down
to
tho
very
fields
of
France,
alm
o
st
within
sight
of
the
Straits
of
Dover;
if
we
have
seen
a,
destruction
of
life,
reckless
destruction
of
life,
not
m
erely
of
th
e
lives
of
soldiers,
but
the
lives
of
civilians;
if
we
have
seen
peace­
fu
l
communities
dragged
through
the
m
ire,
ruined,
outraged:
if
horror
has
been
heaped
upon
horror,
until
really,
we
almOat
get
callous
in
reading
our
new
s­
p
a
p
e
rs
in
the
morning
when
we
see
some
of
these
atrocities,
really
and
truly
a
t
­
tributed
to
those
w
ith
whom
we
are
fight­
ing—if
all
these
things
are
true,,
shall
we
n
o
t
rise
up
and
resist
them
?
Shall
we,
who
know
w
hat
freedom
is,
become
the
hum
b
le
and
obedient*
servants
o
f
those
only
who
know
w
h
a
t
power
is?
T
h
a
t
will
never
b
e
tolerated.
The
free
nations
of
th
e
earth
are
not
toys
to
be
crushed
out
of
existence,
and
if
any
proof
is
required

a

M.
Viviani
said:
The
K
u
l
t
n
r
of
G
e
rm
a
n
y
is
all
v
ery
well
so
long
as
its
interests
are
not
crossed,
b
u
t
when
they
are,
it
is
like
a
wild
beast.
G
e
rm
a
n
y
did
not
know
the
spirit
of
E
n
g
­
land,
of
France,
o
r
of
Russia.
They
said
th
a
t
England
wotild
not
fight,
t
h
a
t
E
n
g
­
lishm
e
n
would
remain
a
t
home
while
th
e
continent
of
Europe
was
averrun,
but
th
e
y
did
not
know
the
history
of
th
a
t
country.
He
then
told
how
M
arshal
Joffre
tele­
phoned
him
a
t
P
a
ris
each
.day
before
the
b
a
ttle
of
th
e
Marne.
\Then
the
day
cam
e,”
said
M.
Viviani,
\when
Joffre
said
to
me,
‘They
shall
come
no
further.'
”
Continuing,
the
speaker
said
th
a
t
in
the
days
from
th
e
Marne
to
Verdun
the
pow­
e
r
of
the
G
erm
an
arm
y
was
broken
and
th
e
tide
turned
in
favor
of
France
and
h
e
r
allies.
H
e
then
said:
\You

Interpellations Likely to Result in De­ bate Over His Reform Plans — Junkers Are Taking, Alarm, Copenhaghn, Wa London, May 12.—The •G e rm a n ia, organ of the Clerical p a rty, in­ dicates th a t Chancellor von Bethm ann- Hollweg does m o t intend to m ake a state­ m e n t with re&^rd to peace term s before th e Reichstag, ^T&e^Chancellqr has evi­ dently won over the Centrists and part of the National Liberal delegation to his view t h a t a discussion of peace term s at- the present, time is inadvisable. In view of the general attitude of Philip Schelde- m ann and other m ajority Socialist lead­ ers, t t would not be surprising if the So­ cialists aiso ab’andoned their intention of forcing a peace debate. ■ T he result of the proposed interpella­ tions is very probable to be a controversy between the opponents and supporters of the Chancellor rath e r than a debate on peace possibilities. The Conservatives are daily grow ing mjye desperate as the work of the Constitutional Revision Committee proceeds w ithout any intervention from the Government to dam the wave of re- itirm which threatens the political influ­ ence of the junkers. \W h ere is Hinden- burg, to raise the fallen K aiser’s banner again and defend the rights of the T h rone?” cries Prince zìi Salm -H o rstm ar in 'the Prussian House of Lords.

F a rth e r downtown, in lower Broadway* the police had hard work keeping back the crowds, and, there was much congestion about the corner where narrow Liberty Street runs into Broad­ way. But, as on yesterday, the police a r ­ rangem e n ts were nearly perfect, and a d e a r passage was maintained .with a minimum of disorder. W hen Mr. B a lfour and his associates entered the great hall of the Chamber on the secoibdk floor, a spacious chamber, which runs to the roof of the structure, upon whose walls are hung portraits of the fam o u s m erchants of the city’s past, he w a s saluted by a gathering of h u n ­ dreds of th e best-known citizens of the city. The meeting was held before th e lunch­ eon, a s is the custom of the Chamber of Commerce, and the speakers addressed the gathering from the president’s ro s ­ trum at th e east end of the chamber. E. H. Outerbridge, president of the Chamber, presided, and the principal speech was 'm ade by Mr. Balfour. In welcoming' the Commissioners, Mr. Outerbridge said, In part: GRE'ETED BY OUTBUBIUDGE. Mr. Outerbridge said: Gentlem en of the Chamber, Mr. Bal­ four, Members of the British Commis­ sion, Mr. Mayor, and guests—Four years ago in this same week of May, 1913, we were welcoming to New York th e repre­ sentatives of -G reat B ritain, Newfound­ land, Canada, and A u stralia to discuss with them a program m e to celebrate the signing of the T reaty of G h ent and to com m em o rate^the one hundred years of peace between the Uillted States and G reat Britain which had followed th a t event. . . To-day we welcome these distinguished guests, representatives of G reat Britain to celebrate the fact th a t we have join­ ed hands to fight with them in the great­ est w a r tho world has ever known. Mr. Balfour, we have been proud to welcome m any of your distinguished countrym en here before, but we are prouder still to welcome you and your Commission here to-day.

W h a t Is to be after this war is over .................................... t no one can safely foretell, for no one can fml t o perceive th a t there will b\ a new world after this war is over, a new civili­ sation, a new hum a n ity, a renewed and greatly vitalized Christianity,v out of which will spring new conceptions of national and personal relations, of social and religious life, of liberty and respon­ sibility. T h is w a r is daily creating and will ul­ tim ately bring a regeneration of spirit, a brotherhood of m an, more momentous in its conséquences to the world than any other Influence to flow from it. The new world, th e regenerated*3piiit, the uplifted hum anity, the higher civili­ zation—these a r e the rew ards of future peace—but hot of peace w ithout victory —for as only death could trium p h over sin, s o only the victory of democracy over autocracy can secure the peace of the ’ world. •Some tim e ago I ventured to say to you th a t were 1 a îu-eaeher I should ask you t o believe th a t a spiritual power was m a rshallling forces to fight against those misguided peoples who were fighting for the pow ers of evil. To-day. in conclusion, I wish to quote words spoken by preach­ ers, and standing here, an American, as your representative and spokesman, I cross my arm s as we do when we sing “Aula Lang Syne,” and, grasping the hand of Britain on one side and of Prance on the other, solemnly and reverently say of these three: Those whom God has joined together to battle for liberty, and the enduring peace of th e world, let no man and no cause put asunder. As soon as th e luncheon is over, Mr. Balfour will return to the Astor .resi­ dence for a brief rest before he attends the only other function of his stay in New York, a reception and entertainm e n t a t Carnegie Hall for the benefit of the B ritish Red Cross. It is not y e t abso­ lutely certain th a t the British Commis­ sioners will attend this affair, but unless the State D e p artm e n t should advise to the con tr a ry it Is understood they will go, following th e precedent set by M arshal J offra »in visiting the benefit performance a t the Metropolitan Opera House T h u rs­ day night. The doubt arises ovèr the propriety of the Commissioenrrs attending a perform ance a t which admission is charged. This evening’s entertainm ent is to be held under the auspices of the American Committee of the B ritish Red Cross and other B ritish w a r relief societies. W ith the exception of a few seats in the balconies the house was all sold out early to-day, including all th e boxés, which went at prices varying between $500 and $1,000. Among th e committees cooperating w ith the Red Cross .Committee are those of the S t. George’s, St. Andrew's, and St. David's Societies. The entertainm e n t committee includes Mrs. W alter E.

W ashington , May 12.—Elaborate dedi­ cation ceremonies Were held here to-day for th e new American Red Cross H e a d ­ quarters, a big marble structure. Presi­ dent Wilson, Secretary Baker, and former President T a ft were on the programme. Representatives of Red Cross chapters all ov*r the country, many high officials, dip­ lomats, and otheis attended. As a fea­ ture of the ceremonies, the W ashington chapter arranged a parade of women in uniform, w ith motor ambulances, trucks, and field k itchens for review by the Presi­ dent. The m arshal was Mrs. Hugh Scott, wife of Gen. Scott. Army Chief or Staff. The new ediflt-e. which cost $800,000, faces the mall about which many of the capital’s newest and most heautiful build­ ings are grouped, and stands between the Corcoran A rt Gallery and Continental Me­ morial Hall, home of the D a u g h ters of the American Revolution. Exercises were held in the latter hall. The building is dedicated as \a memo­ rial built by the Government of the Unit­ ed States and patriotic citizens to the wo­ men of the North and the women of the South, h e ld in loving memory l>y a now united country, that their labors to m iti­ gate the sufferings of the sick and wound­ ed in war m a y be perpetuated.\ Senator John Sharp Williams, of Mis­ sissippi, was on the programme to speak for women of the South, and Rev. H. Percy Silver, chaplain, of the Military Academy, for women of the North; E ight years ago Red Cross headquar­ ters occupied a single small room in the W ar Departm ent. Now even the whole of the new building is not sufficient to accommodate all branches of the work here, and many FJed Cross bureaus must have offices elsewhere.

The Committee took up the war taxes on public utilities, advertising, am u se­ ments, insurance, club dues; and m anu­ facturers of automobiles, mnving-picture films, cosmetifls, and chewing gum, and represenatives of all the interests af­ fected were on han-i eager to tell how their businesses would, he unjustly bur­ dened or even ruined by the proposed assessments.

The French And British Com m lsslom , were the guests of the city last night at a dinner given b y the Mayor's Commit­ tee at the W aldorf-Astoria Hotel. New York has played host to distinguished visitors on m any great occasions, but probably never before with the unre- I strained enthusiasm th a t w as witnessed < last night, A week of entertaining seems J to have fanned rather than sated the , city's desire to extend a welcome to its j guests, and the c h eers that greeted J off re, j Viviani, and Balfour when they entered the room were repeated whenever an ex­ cuse was offered. Rarely has a m o re distinguished gath ­ ering of New Yorkers m et to pay homage to any one. More th a n 1,000 leaders of the city’s public life, business, art, finance, science, and education w ere grouped about the speakers’ table. They included two ex-Presidents of the U n ited States, two form e r Presidential candidates, Charles E. H u g h e s and Alton B. Parker, the Governor of New York, the junior United States Senator, and Mayor i M iuhei, who presided over the cere monies. In the course of his speech Mr. Bal- i four said th a t he had not come here to 1 ' give the American U overnm cnt advice, i b u t that the Commission would be glad | to describe the m istakps of the Allies I! the people here wished to profit by them. H e spoke of w h a t he called the \imm i­ nent and overm astering peril” which the world laced, saying, in part: I W hat is th a t peril'.’ W h a t is th a t peril? W ho has brought ua here together'.’ W h a t | Is it we are aftaid of? 1 won’t say afraid. W h a t is it we feel t h a t we have got to stop? I l will tell you my view of it. It is th e calculated a n d rem o rseless use of every civilized weapon to carry out the ends of pure barbarism . To people of English speech i t seems impossible, in­ credible, th a t a nation should clearly set itself to work and coordinate every m eans of science, every m eans th a t knowledge, th a t industry, can provide, not for the bettering of its ow n people, bu t for the demolition of other people. We have been tau g h t, not by Germany, b u t by those who rule G erm any—by the m ilitary caste which controls Germany— w e have been \taught a different lesson, a n d we now know not m erely th a t every scientific weapon will be put in force to m a k e war more horrible than it was in barbarous times, b u t t h a t even the rights of clviliztaion, of trade, of commerce, even th e intercommunication between different peoples, will be used fo r the same sin­ ister object. Ladies and gentlemen, th a t is the danger we have to meet, and if at this m o m ent the world is bathed in blood an d tears from the highlands of dis­ ta n t A rm enia down to tho very fields of France, alm o st within sight of the Straits of Dover; if we have seen a, destruction of life, reckless destruction of life, not m erely of th e lives of soldiers, but the lives of civilians; if we have seen peace­ fu l communities dragged through the m ire, ruined, outraged: if horror has been heaped upon horror, until really, we almOat get callous in reading our new s­ p a p e rs in the morning when we see some of these atrocities, really and truly a t ­ tributed to those w ith whom we are fight­ ing—if all these things are true,, shall we n o t rise up and resist them ? Shall we, who know w hat freedom is, become the hum b le and obedient* servants o f those only who know w h a t power is? T h a t will never b e tolerated. The free nations of th e earth are not toys to be crushed out of existence, and if any proof is required t h a t t h a t consum mation can­ n o t be reached In the civilization of the world, th a t th a t consum m ation is im pos­ sible, it Is a gathering like this where th e three great democracies of the W e st a r e joined together and are m 6 « e ting'to­ gether, I m ay say, under circum stances unique in the whole history of the world. M. Viviani said: The K u l t n r of G e rm a n y is all v ery well so long as its interests are not crossed, b u t when they are, it is like a wild beast. G e rm a n y did not know the spirit of E n g ­ land, of France, o r of Russia. They said th a t England wotild not fight, t h a t E n g ­ lishm e n would remain a t home while th e continent of Europe was averrun, but th e y did not know the history of th a t country.
